No "Woodward" siding listed. There's a "Woodworth" at MP 115.

No "Paterno" siding either. Only ones close to that name are "Pomfret" @ MP 54.8, "PA" @ MP 113, "Parrish" @ MP 117.2, "Perry" @ MP 148.8, and "Painsville" @ MP 155.2, That's it for the P's between the Buff and Cleveland.

No word anything close to "Paterno" on either the Lake Division Time Table or the Division System Map. May be a road or other little known name from 50 years ago that they use on the radio but it doesn't exist in company literature.
There's some spots they call out in Buffalo that are not officially written into the Timetable, "FY" and "The Connector" had me beat for about 6 months. I've been listening to them for a year and half and am just now starting to make sense of it all. Very confusal.

Roughly where abouts is "Paterno"?

Any possibility it's on the WNY&P the NS uses as a crossover in Downstate, NY?

PATERNO is the control point on the west side of Erie (MP 91.5) where the old main track (the remains of which are now called the "Erie Industrial Track") connects with the new trackage running alongside CSX.
